Review:

If you're a fan of classic American comfort food - like the kind served throughout the history of roadside America, at classic diners, this is a fun book, packed with recipes for most of your down home diner favorites.

This book is actually the sequel to Collector's Press' first volume - Retro Diner. This book, like all the books in the Retro series, is designed in classic 50s retro style with full color artwork and photographs of classic American roadside diners - the kind that look like streamline train cars - and lots of foods served in classic retro diner style.

Some of the recipes are from actual diners, others typify the kind of hearty fare served at these types of establishments. Chapters include: Rise N' Shine (breakfast recipes); Soups; Sweet Stuff from the Counter; Salads and More; Sandwiches at the Counter; Hot off the Grill; and Blue Plate Specials.

Like all the books in this series, it makes a great gift for nostalgia buffs, diner and retro food enthusiasts.

Chapters include: Up & at “Em; Inviting Soups and Stews; Salads and Sides; Sandwich Classics; Grilled to Perfection; More Blue Plate Specials; Make Room for Dessert.
